uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בְּ⁠אֹֽרַח־צְדָקָ֥ה אֲהַלֵּ֑ך

in/on/at/with,way_of righteousness walk

Here Wisdom speaks of behaving righteously as if she were walking on a path. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I behave righteously”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

בְּ⁠אֹֽרַח־צְדָקָ֥ה

in/on/at/with,way_of righteousness

Here, Wisdom is using the possessive form to describe the path that is characterized by righteousness. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “the righteous path”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

בְּ֝⁠ת֗וֹךְ נְתִיב֥וֹת מִשְׁפָּֽט

in_the=middle paths_of justice

Wisdom is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a clause would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the previous clause if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “I walk in the midst of the pathways of justice”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

נְתִיב֥וֹת מִשְׁפָּֽט

paths_of justice

Here, Wisdom is using the possessive form to describe the pathways that are characterized by justice. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “the just pathways”

8:20 OSHB note: We agree with both BHS 1997 and BHQ on an unexpected reading.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
